tested your line in 8.1 [james@jamlin Winamp]$ echo -n "I can see this line in Mandrake 7.2 but not 8.0" I can see this line in Mandrake 7.2 but not 8.0[james@jamlin Winamp]$
Works in 8.1 ...... Don't have an 8.0 box to test it on. Perhaps upgrading bash to the 8.1 version, bash-2.05-10mdk might help.
